Triangular craft descending and hovering by radio tower.

First, the story: I was hesitant to write this experience but I feel like it is something I should share. I was driving north on I-95 in Georgia, USA between Brunswick and Savannah in Georgia after visiting my sister in Florida . The date was 1/11/2020 and around 1:30 AM is when it happened. As I was driving all off the sudden, very high up in the atmosphere a red light appeared, directly to the right (east) of the highway. It stayed there for a second or 2 before descending, very rapidly, over the course of 4-5 seconds to just above the tree line. It struck me as odd because the lights didn't blink, they were very bright from a distance, and the distance that it descended in that time was staggering. I thought it was a plane descending the opposite direction I was traveling but the non blinking lights and fast descent threw me off. It stopped at the end of the descent, right above the tree line, where it remained stationary. Numerous times when I have been driving I have noticed that when pla! nes travel in the opposite direction to you, when they are low they give the appearance they are stationary so I chalked it up to that, but something still seemed off. It took about 10 seconds before I got to the craft (I was traveling ~80 mph) and realized it was something I've never seen before. When I passed it, it was hovering about 50 ft SE and 50 ft vertical (best guess) over the tower east of I-95 and a side road (the side road was directly east of I-95, south of belfast keller road). This tower is right off the highway, maybe 100 feet. It was so close and low, and so crystal clear that I couldn't really process what I had seen at the time. It was ever so slightly rotating (barely discernable) clockwise in the x and y direction (z being vertical or normal to the earth) when I passed it. After I passed it I looked in the rear view mirror and couldn't see anything but I think the tree line hid it from that angle. I didn't have a good night camera at the time either (my! cell phone camera was cracked, and on top of that takes horri! ble nigh t pictures), which I wish I had. It was also a long drive (~7 hours) so I kept on driving to get home. The only thing I could think of was that this was military in nature and that the craft liked radio towers.

Description of craft: I would describe the craft as follows but I have also made a 3D CAD model of it as well in autodesk inventor. It was shaped like an equilateral triangle, with each side having the length of a semi truck with trailer or slightly bigger. The edges of that triangle were chamfered and it appeared to have no thickness due to the angle I saw it at. There were 6 lights, symmetric about the center and having the same exact color as a car brakelight. There was another triangular shaped, vertically recessed area in the center that was chamfered to the lower section.. In that center, there was a dome (Imagine a sphere that has been chopped at 1/3 to 1/4 of it's diameter) that appeared to be made of a thick glass but whatever was underneath was the blackest black I have ever seen. It stood out. I was driving so I couldn't say it made no noise but it didn't make any discernable noise.
